They look really good, but I wish Nakayoshi would give it's other popular manga some love too for their 60th anniversary celebration. So far it's only been Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura stuff. :/

I knew figures like these would cost a lot.

The show taught me to expect the unexpected, you know.

$100? Those clothes better detach for that price.

Long since ordered. Will work well on my mantle under my matching pair of CCS movie 2 cels and the Sakura/Tomoyo nendos.

I've got them all pre-ordered already : ) Also got the Figma, the nendoroid and pretty much all of the other CCS stuff that's been coming out. Love it.

100 dollars isn't really all that expensive when talking about figurines.

So much cute...if the colors hold that vibrancy in the figures themselves, very nice. I already have more than enough releases on my calendar and no space on my shelves though. Maybe next time.

I don't know why, but pink Sakura's face looks off to me. I think it might be the combination of the wide mouth, nose that looks nonexistent, and low eyes.

I like the yellow Sakura though. Syaoran looks great as well.

Many people were put off by the large mouth when it was first displayed. It actually fits with the manga, not so much with the anime designs.

I knew about these figures already, that Syaoran is gorgeous. I'm just glad the Sakura one has the iconic pink dress because it's not one of my favorites, so I don't feel as compelled to have it or as miserable for being incapable of affording it. Like damn, if they did one with the dress she used to capture Watery or the one from Yue's trial (manga version) I would be homeless

Already have the yellow figure preordered. I'm so glad they're putting out something that DOESN'T have the first OP's outfit. How many figures of Sakura in the red dress does one person need?

$100 is actually not that bad of a price for a scaled figure like that, especially with how detailed they are. I'd say it's an average/fair/good price, really.
I've seen scale figures that cost more than these and the characters barely have anything on or lack detail (in comparison).

Anyone know if they'll make more than the Sakura Figma?
